There was a question about what manufacturer made it. It looks like a generic Taiwanese
whitebox,
sticker on the back says "Mega 4000", sticker on the front says "AT
Light" (+1 for them getting
the spelling right instead of using "Lite", -100 for their marketing department
appearing to have
no idea what "AT" means).
I guess I'll hang onto it for a bit, anyway. I have a SCSI card that will work in it
and an old VGA
card.

C: What does "AT Light" supposed to signify? The dawning of the Taiwanese junk
box era? God saw the light and it was good. I'm not so sure he felt the same way about
cheap Taiwanese clones. But I never asked him.
???? Even though I'm illiterate, it wood seem they're were trying to say _AT_
model, a bit _lite_ in the loafers. In other werds not a real AT. Like my AT Junior at
home. It's just an XT, which could be viewed as a lesser AT. The American company
chose the Junior surname, the Taiwanese dubbed their model Lite. They got it all wrong
w/regards to spelling. +10,000 for the marketing department. They got away w/it, whereas
the Gringo company didn't.

C: And those 2 cards make it more useful? How? You going to plug a scsi scanner or hard
drive in? You may be able to use a zip drive if my information is correct. VGA cards?
What's that going to do for your AT-Light? Play age old games?
